ソワレSoirée
Landmark cafe & sweet store founded shortly after WWII, specialising in jelly, cakes & coffee.
Our shop opened in 1948, and we still cherish the atmosphere of that time today. Therefore, the interior is dim and the seating is narrow. Also, we have been non-smoking since 2016. We ask for your understanding. On July 9, 2026, it was registered as a national Tangible Cultural Property (Building).

Such a cute little cafe to stop by. Drinks are all around ¥700-900. Their signature is the colorful jelly soda and it’s pretty good, and simple coffee is decent as well. It’s right by the Gion area so good place to take a little break. Small cafe so not recommended for big group. It’s a nice quiet cafe.

View on GoogleJust a delightful spot to enjoy a bit of whimsy. Loved the soda Jelly and coffee jelly drinks.
View on GoogleIf you are looking for an out of the Era ambiance, this place is for you. The interior design and music takes you out of time for a while. The food and drinks presentation and tableware adds the last touches for the perfect picture. Tastes wise, it's not extraordinary, and the prices are a bit high so I would recommend this place to people who wants more of a photo spot than a delicious break.
